Why? Because the MSP believe that G&S is a light bulb that you can turn on or off. On the job? No problem, G&S. Retired more than five years ago? No soup for you, your G&S has an expiration date.
Never mind that the violent felons that you arrested and actually were incarcerated by the criminal justice system might be eventually get out of the grey bar motel.
Same for TS clearances, working for .gov or a contractor, G&S. Retire and *poof*. Never mind the fact that .gov requires you to safeguard the knowledge that is still in your melon for life.
I doubt the Troopers in the LD ever made an arrest. I guess I should check before saying that. Its just fun to say it.
